Forms for hazardous substances registers and risk assessments
Employers or people in control of workplaces where hazardous substances are used must keep and maintain an up to date hazardous substances register that is readily available to staff. Risk assessments must also be performed on hazardous substances to minimise exposure and protect the health and well being of staff.
WorkSafe Inspectors are often asked for examples of hazardous substances registers and risk assessment forms. The following forms are for practical use in your workplace. There is an example of a completed risk assessment form and hazardous substances register and a blank copy of each that can be down loaded for your use.
